Just returned to Santiago , and when I purchased my tourist card was told they only accept dollars . I usually pay in pesos . When I questioned this practice the person working at the counter stated " This is an American company ."
Now Im a newbie but not that new . My ride showed up so unfortunatly I could not continue my questioning of this practice .
Doesnt the Dominican Republic Goverment get this money for tourism ?
Has anyone else had a similar experience ?
Or was paying in dollars my welcome home present to the DR after a months absence ?
You dont have to answer the last question unless you want to .
